Posted this in a random thread yesterday but figured it probably deserved more views. This is from a rainy day last August, near the peak at Pretty River Valley Provincial Park, Ontario, on the Niagara Escarpment. I watched the clouds rolling in, and then they rolled into and through the forest, creating an absolutely magical scene.

Hikers are welcome. Trails are very poorly marked. Start at the bottom of the valley for maximum elevation gain. :)

Pretty River Valley is probably the least imaginative name they could have given it, but it’s accurate. Sometimes simplicity is best.

Thanks, I think so too! That 14km hike was one of the most beautiful of my life
